| Reverse description | Seated figure of Minerva in classical armor, helmeted, holding a spear in her left hand and resting her right hand on a shield bearing the royal arms of Spain; behind her, bookshelves and a terrestrial globe symbolize academic learning, while an inkwell and quill pen appear in the foreground. A circular Latin legend reads FORS ET ELOQUENT CERTI CONSI MEX ACAD, and in the exergue the engraver's inscription reads I.M.GUERRERO INVENTO Y GRAVO 1809. |
